Investigate the relationship between the volume of a gas and the pressure it exerts on its container. This relationship is commonly known as Boyle’s Law. The pressure of a gas…
Explore the relationship between the temperature of a gas and the pressure it exerts on its container. This is commonly known as Gay-Lussac’s Law or Amontons’ Law of Pressure-Temperature. As…
Explore the relationship between the temperature of a gas and its volume. This is commonly known as Charles’s Law. The volume of a gas tends to increase as the temperature…
…commonly helical coiled metal devices. When a spring is compressed or stretched and then released, it will vibrate at a particular frequency. This frequency is called the period of the…
…molecular level. Watch the effects of sunlight and then watch the effects of infrared radiation, also known as heat radiation, on the ground and on carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas….
Explore how changing the DNA sequence can change the amino acid sequence of a protein. Proteins are composed of long strings of amino acids. Proteins are coded for in the…
Compare the electron distribution, potential energy, and forces of two interacting hydrogen atoms (which can bond) with two helium atoms (which do not).
